Trader Joe's Cotton Candy Grapes Are Officially Back In Stores!
UPDATE: March 06, 2019 at 10:53 a.m.
Good news for anyone who loves the sweet, sweet taste of cotton candy grapes: Shoppers have spotted them in stores far earlier than last year! The specialty grapes usually start to appear during the summer, but some stores-like this Trader Joe's South Florida location-have already started to see early shipments come in.

If you haven't tried them yet, you truly are in for a treat. It sounds weird, but they really do taste like the carnival dessert!! Availability varies by location, but start keeping an eye out at your local grocery stores. Last year, Costco, Whole Foods, Sam's Club, and Publix stores carried them too.

There are few things in this world that we love more than healthy snacks that taste like candy. It's some sort of sorcery TBH, but there's no way we're going to question it. Cotton Candy Grapes is a great example - an all-natural fruit that legitimately tastes like something straight out of a carnival? SURE. They've been around for a few years, but now Trader Joe's shoppers can get in on the hype.
Earlier this month, Costco brought back the beloved grape, but, well, you might not have a membership. So, all is right in the world now that Trader Joe's has also stocked up.
If you're out of the loop on how these are real, they're made from cross-breeding different types of grapes. Can you imagine freezing these super-sweet grapes and eating them on the hot beach all summer? They're basically just frozen bite-size cotton candy ices ... that are actually just fruit ... now we're talkin'.
And if you're not a Costco member and also don't live near a Trader Joe's, there's still hope! Some Wegman's, Publix, Kroger, and Fresh Market locations carry these babies, too.
